Submitted to RTV International Film Festival 2026Synopsis
A short cinematic video essay about the greatest paradox of human history. We learned to reshape the world, split the atom, and reach for the stars—but did we ever learn to live together? As our planet's resources are consumed faster than they can recover, the film asks a simple question: will humanity become an interplanetary civilization, or inherit a scorched world where survival is the ultimate conflict?

I’m an AI creator from Ukraine with a background in visual storytelling and a strong interest in cinema, technology, and experimental forms of filmmaking. I create short cinematic works using generative AI, combining AI-generated image and video with sound design, editing, and narrative structure. My projects often explore memory, human experience, technology, and the contradictions of modern life. I’m interested in using AI not simply as a production tool, but as a way to explore new visual languages and storytelling possibilities.
